Drugs loaded in drug eluting stents(DESs) were introduced in this review.DESs have been dominant for the treatment of coronary artery disease in the interventional cardiology world owing to their preponderance in reducing restenosis.However
late in-stent thrombosis has become a major concern.Aiming to provide a clue for the design of future DES
this review focuses on the development of drugs(rapamycin
tacrolimus
everolimus
mytrolimus
taxinol) loaded in DESs and their roles in restenosis and thrombosis.Currently
there is insufficient information to evaluate the safety and efficacy of herbal medicine loaded in DESs for clinical use.Traditional Chinese Medicines(TCMs) have been extensively used to prevent and cure many diseases in China due to its low toxicity and rare complications.If herbal extracts(tetramethylpyrazine
emodin
curcumine
triptolide
puerarin
etc.) were loaded in DESs
the restenosis and thrombosis rate would decrease.
